MISSION STATEMENT

La Rocque Better Roof Inc’s mission is to provide the highest-quality workmanship possible. We succeed at this because of the integrity of our staff, our commitment to a solid work ethic, and our passion for staying current with the newest innovations of our industry, with consideration for the environment.

La Rocque Better Roofs, Inc., is a roofing construction business incorporated in California in 1984 by Guy La Rocque. Our staff and crew members bring years of experience in residential and commercial roofing and high-end renovations and additions.

Our employees have been chosen based on their ability and level of craftsmanship, as well as their personal qualities and values. We believe that having our own employees provides us with more immediate control over the direction and nature of the roofing construction process.

Our pride and personal involvement in the work we perform result in superior quality and service. This attitude is also directly reflected in our employees’ level of responsibility, professionalism and competency.

As a professional engaged in the business of providing roofing construction, we agree to conduct ourselves and business in accordance with the following Code of Ethics:
